Pros

Line manager throws treat if team meets KPI.

Cons

No recognition for academic qualification. Promotion and salary increment is solely based on level of contribution in the lab. No work-life balance. No opportunities to learn new skills as lab is constantly busy. Though office hours, work can end 10pm. Colleagues have the high tendency to display racial discriminating behavior. The level of favouritism can be overwhelming that could lead to certain ethnic individual to be stagnant in their career progress. No welfare.

Pros

The actual coworkers and team members are great. Everyone is super supportive and just trying to help each other out.

Cons

Management: There’s a huge disconnect between upper leadership and the people doing the day-to-day work. Goals and priorities change constantly with very little communication, and it often feels like micromanagement takes the place of actual guidance. Work-Life Balance: The workload is completely unsustainable. You’re expected to handle an overwhelming amount of work, but you aren't given the resources or staffing to actually get it done without burning out. Expecting people to constantly work over their hours has become the norm. Lack of Growth: Career progression is pretty much non-existent. Promises of promotions or career development are thrown around, but they rarely actually happen. There’s no clear pathway to move up, so it’s easy to feel stuck and stagnant.
